How the NNC4832-CV model number is decoded
Ordering number SKF NNC 4832 CV resolves to a 160×200×40 mm double-row full-complement cylindrical roller bearing (dimension series 48 (compact heavy section)); a non-separable double-row full complement bearing with three integral inner-ring flanges and two retaining rings holding the outer ring on both sides. Structurally, the NNC design has a non-separable double-row full complement bearing with three integral inner-ring flanges and two retaining rings holding the outer ring on both sides. In arrangement terms it is two-direction locating — the retaining-ring configuration closes both axial escape paths. Suffix CV identifies the full-complement execution: the space a cage would occupy is filled with extra rollers, trading speed for maximum radial capacity and stiffness. Load-per-bore for the 160 mm seat is about 1.63 kN/mm, typical of dimension series 48 (compact heavy section); use C0 610 kN for static checks such as crane hook blocks standing under load. Mounting: check both retaining rings are seated in their grooves before installation; axial guidance in both directions makes this the locating pair member, so the mating bearing must float. A 160 mm seat normally takes a m6 interference with an H6 housing bore when the inner ring rotates.
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- steelmaking and heavy crane sheaves
- large offshore winch and hook blocks
- mining shovel and dragline pivots
Known failure patterns
- inner-ring raceway spalling from overload or contamination in the line-contact hertz zone
- outer-ring raceway fatigue after extended service at loads above the catalogue L10 rating
- roller smearing between the uncaged rollers during slow skidding starts under heavy static load
- polymer cage cracking or softening after sustained running above 120 °C or with incompatible lubricant
- roller-end scoring from inadequate oil flow in the roller-raceway contact
- uneven row loading from misalignment, concentrating fatigue on one row of the double complement
- false brinelling on standby machines exposed to external vibration
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- The NNCF/NNCL/NNC triplet shares the envelope and ratings but differs in outer-ring retention — one retaining ring, none, or two; selecting the wrong one changes the axial-locating scheme.
- Relubrication must reach both roller rows through the annular groove; blocked lube holes starve one row silently and show later as asymmetric raceway wear.
- Catalogue reference and limiting speeds are different criteria: observe the mechanical ceiling even when thermal calculations allow more.
- Press-fit force goes through ring faces only; driving a ring home through the rollers brinells the 200 mm raceway.
- The 260/610 kN ratings are SKF catalogue 17000 (2018) values for the CV execution; re-verify against the current catalogue for critical drives and keep the catalogue version with the specification.
Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions and catalogue data of NNC4832-CV?
SKF NNC 4832 CV is a double-row full-complement cylindrical roller bearing with 160 mm bore, 200 mm OD and 40 mm width per ISO 15. SKF lists C 260 kN, C0 610 kN, Pu 62 kN, reference speed 1,400 r/min and limiting speed 1,700 r/min, mass about 3100 g.
What does the NNC designation and CV suffix mean?
Suffix CV identifies the full-complement execution: the space a cage would occupy is filled with extra rollers, trading speed for maximum radial capacity and stiffness. Structurally this execution has a non-separable double-row full complement bearing with three integral inner-ring flanges and two retaining rings holding the outer ring on both sides.
Can NNC4832-CV take axial load and locate the shaft?
Yes, in both directions, because retaining rings close both sides of the outer ring; the paired bearing must then float.
How does NNC4832-CV compare with the other executions in the same envelope?
NNCF (one outer retaining ring, one-direction guidance), NNCL (no retaining ring, floating outer ring) and NNC (retaining rings both sides, two-direction location) share the ISO envelope and ratings but are not interchangeable in a locating arrangement.
What limits the service life of this bearing most often?
On full-complement bearings the dominant risks are roller smearing from skidding below minimum load and contamination; maintain minimum radial load, keep lubricant film thick and accelerate gently.
